THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO TIMOTHY.
CHAPTER 6:
14 That thou keep this commandment
without spot, unrebukeable, until the
appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
15 Which in his times he shall shew, who
is the blessed and only Potentate, the King
of kings, and Lord of lords;
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling
in the light which no man can approach
unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can
see: to whom be honour and power
everlasting. Amen.
THE SECOND EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS.
CHAPTER 4:
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them
that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath
blinded the minds of them which believe
not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of
Christ, who is the image of God, should
shine unto them.

CHAPTER 1:

the firstborn of every creature:
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. JOHN.
CHAPTER 1:

of the Father, he hath declared him.
THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES.
CHAPTER 9:
3 And as he journeyed, he came near
Damascus: and suddenly there shined
round about him a light from heaven:
4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a
voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And
the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick
against the pricks.
6 And he trembling and astonished said,
Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And
the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into
the city, and it shall be told thee what thou
must do.
7 And the men which journeyed with him
stood speechless, hearing a voice, but
seeing no man.
8 And Saul arose from the earth; and
when his eyes were opened, he saw no
man: but they led him by the hand, and
brought him into Damascus.
9 And he was three days without sight,
and neither did eat nor drink.
CHAPTER 22:
6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my
journey, and was come nigh unto
Damascus about noon, suddenly there
shone from heaven a great light round
about me.
7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a
voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why
persecutest thou me?
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord?
And he said unto me, I am Jesus of
Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
9 And they that were with me saw indeed
the light, and were afraid; but they heard
not the voice of him that spake to me.
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And
the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into
Damascus; and there it shall be told thee
of all things which are appointed for thee
to do.
11 And when I could not see for the glory
of that light, being led by the hand of them
that were with me, I came into Damascus.
12 And one Ananias, a devout man
according to the law, having a good report
of all the Jews which dwelt there,
13 Came unto me, and stood, and said
unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight.
And the same hour I looked up upon him.
14 And he said, The God of our fathers
hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest
know his will, and see that Just One, and
shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
CHAPTER 26:
13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a
light from heaven, above the brightness of
the sun, shining round about me and them
which journeyed with me.
14 And when we were all fallen to the
earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me,
and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul,
Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard
for thee to kick against the pricks.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And
he said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest.
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I
have appeared unto thee for this purpose,
to make thee a minister and a witness both
of these things which thou hast seen, and
of those things in the which I will appear
unto thee;
17 Delivering thee from the people, and
from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send
thee,
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them
from darkness to light, and from the power
of Satan unto God, that they may receive
forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among
them which are sanctified by faith that is
in me.
